Today I cut out a new neck side template out of 1/8" birch plywood using the laser. Then I cut out some material for the neck from some old sconce side tables that I built years ago but no longer need since the renovation. This is good stuff; 4/4 Honduran Mahogany. It was a little tricky because I had to dodge some screw holes that were drilled for assembly. Using the template, I managed to miss the holes or make sure they would be buried out of site when the neck is shaped. There are 4 layers of lamination to get a total of about 3" thick. Glued together using Titebond Original glue.
Time: 3.5 hours
Total time: 8.5 hours
